  • I believe you’re being earnest so I’m giving you the best information I have and doing my best to explain here.

    For one thing Al Jazeera is literally owned by Quatar who funds and is allied with Hamas. The Hamas leadership all live there, as millionaires, under the protection of the state that owns the media outlet.

    This is why their Media Bias Fact check is notably lower than Haaretz. Medium credibility vs. High credibility

    Secondly, Haaretz is not owned by the Israeli government. Which not being state owned automatically gives it a credibility edge.

    Personally, I do not like Haaretz, they are too soft on the conflict for me. But I don’t dispute the veracity of their journalism.

    Al Jazeera though is just a state run propaganda machine for Qatar and Hamas.

    EDIT and PS: For non Israeli/Hamas war, Al Jazeera isn’t as bad, for things they have no stake in its slightly better in it’s journalism. Same way you’d NEVER go to the BBC for info on the UK.
